You've had pot pies? I didn't know it was an international thing. I actually love them. I will make from scratch sometimes but my favorite store bought ones are the Marie Callender chicken pot pies.
It's National Pot Pie Day in the U.S., Saturday, September 23, 2023! What are you making?

As the T-Shirt says, Chicken Pot Pie - Three of my favorite things!
Perogies with Sauteed Spinach, Carrots and Mushrooms.
Very tasty. Was going to double but thankfully I did not as I would have eaten all.

They are British by origin as far as I know and I've lived in Britain. I like chicken and leek pot pie if I have to have any.
I love pot pies... any sort - with the exception of Steak and Kidney 
I'm guessing theirs are different and we Muricans changed it up considerably. Just a guess and I could be wrong. Some of the UK meat pies I've seen didn't look or sound too great.
Leeks and chicken sounds pretty good.

Where are you from? Never heard that tribal name before.
Chicken and Leek, Chicken, Leek and Mushroom - all some of my favourites!
First time I heard it was Rascal/Russ.
Yup. That's where I got it. Try putting marbles in your mouth and saying "Americans" and it might come close.

I believe that you are correct.
Early double crust pies were known as coffins and single crust pies were called traps.
I think the crust on early pies was not really intended to be eaten and provided more of a liner for baking dishes and a barrier towards the intense and uneven heat of early ovens.
I believe that the English settlers introduced pies to Colonial America.

I hate that saying.
ohh... think I'm catching on... slang for 'American'?
I'm trying to get away from uncommon contractions and abbreviations. Does not help people who's mother tongue is not English.
I'm not always successful of course, my brain thinks faster than my fingers can type and it is difficult to keep up.

I think it's funny. If I heard (read) it more than a few times a year maybe not. I've actually never heard anyone speak it but thats how I imagine it would sound.
Ahhh, that must be the trick! I must remember to put my dentures in before typing!.
American slang is littered with them.
I like acronyms. I'll try to remember to translate them occasionally
It's a real PITA to type everything out on my phone. You can probably figure that out.

I don't mind common acronyms, but many times people get carried away. It takes me twice as long to figure out what OGLGE they are trying to say than it would for them to type it out.

I also absolutely HATE “ “joisey”!! I’ve lived here my whole life and never heard a Jersey person say that.

"Murican" came from a former US president, as in "my fellow Muricans".
In high school I had a teacher who said "lon giland" when referring to Long Island.
I agree about acronyms being difficult to figure out. Just write it or leave it alone!

FYI, there are keyboard apps available that are pretty good at predictive text. It cuts down on typing time and spelling accuracy considerably. I use Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard.
